This past week was a really busy one in the garden, but I still managed to find a few grocery deals. My appetite for grocery shopping has totally taken a back seat lately and I don’t really mind one bit. It’s nice not to have to spend a lot of my time scouring ads and looking for deals when I can just stock up on what we really need instead of chasing the deals every single day of the week like I used to. Change is good. Here is what I picked up this past week.
Tacoma Boys – $2.99 Tacoma Boys still has Fugi apples on sale for $.60 a pound, so if you are driving by Tacoma anytime soon be sure and stop by and grab a few {or a case}.
Oroweat Bread Outlet Store – $5 Monkey Boy and I ran errands last week and stopped by the Oroweat Bakery Outlet in Tacoma. We stocked up on wheat bread and bagels for $1 a loaf/bag. If you’ve never been to a bread outlet before, you should give it a try as they are a great way to save a little dough.
QFC – $6.79 Monkey Boy was with me when I stopped to buy milk. I picked up a half gallon of local milk for The Girl and I and a gallon of store brand milk for the boy.
Bartering with Mrs. Hillbilly Mrs. HB called on Saturday morning looking for exactly 3 hot dog buns and she brought my poor deprived children some Granola Thins for their lunches as a trade.
Amazon – FREE A while back I redeemed some Swagbucks for Amazon gift cards and went ahead and ordered some Kashi Crackers and diced tomatoes with the gift cards. I didn’t can enough tomatoes last summer so this year I’mm need to up the anty {I’m thinking about 100 pints at least to get us though a whole year}.
Frieda’s Specialty Produce – FREE So far I’ve made Roasted Purple Sweet Potato Wedges with Rosemary and Thyme, and I’m looking forward to trying some new polenta recipes. I’ve never cooked polenta before so I’m not sure what I’m going to make with it yet. But check back a little later today and you’ll see what I made with those yummy new potatoes.
Albertsons – FREE I know there was a ton of deals to be had at Albertsons with double coupons on Sunday, but I really wasn’t interested in a lot of it. I was however able to pick up free tortillas, free Kikkoman soy sauce and free Arrowhead Mills cereal though with the following coupons though. Save $1.00 off La Victoria Tortillas Save $1.00 off Kikkoman Soy Sauce Save $1.00 off Arrowhead Mills Cereal
Home Grown Lettuce – FREE We harvested out first batch of homegrown lettuce last week!
Mr. Produce Guy – FREE Apples, pears, grapes and celery were all FREE last week thanks to Mr. Produce Guy and our reclaimed food boxes.
